Air Fryer Sweet Potato Chips
A delightful and healthy snack featuring crispy, flavorful sweet potato chips made effortlessly in an air fryer.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes Washed and peeled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil For coating the chips
- 1 teaspoon salt To taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika Optional seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper Optional seasoning
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by washing and peeling the sweet potatoes. Slice them thinly using a mandoline or a sharp knife, aiming for about 1/8 inch thickness for even cooking.
- In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil, ensuring each slice is lightly coated.
- Sprinkle salt, paprika, and black pepper over the sweet potatoes. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the seasoning.
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
Cooking
- Once preheated, place a single layer of sweet potato slices in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket to allow proper air circulation.
- Cook the sweet potato slices for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Keep an eye on them in the final minutes to avoid burning; you want them crispy and golden.
- Remove the chips from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly on a wire rack to maintain crispiness.
- Repeat the process with any remaining slices.
Notes
For serving, you can pair these chips with dips like hummus or guacamole. Store cooled chips in an airtight container for best freshness. Avoid refrigerating them to maintain crispiness.
